Snowfall

There was a snowfall in my neighborhood and all over the East Coast on March 2. This was the first real storm of this winter though even without storms it has seemed like a long, cold, dreary season. I did this study of an earlier snowfall in my 2005 sketch journal. Done with markers in the journal, about 3" x 4". I liked how the snow-filled air made all the colors pale and greyish. I am lucky to be inside in a warm place tonight.

I haven't had any comments on this blog for a long time. I hope that someone is still out there looking at it. It is almost a year now since I started "Art By-Products" and I want to continue it.

Don't worry, there's still people reading and enjoying your art. :) Just because one doesn't comment, doesn't mean they don't enjoy your work. Personally, I usually don't have anything relevant to add or say, hence why I rarely comment.

I have the same problem with little to no comments on my blog as well. I can check the numbers on how many people are reading my blog, and the number of readers vs the number of commenters is 200:1.

It doesn't mean they don't appreciate it, it's just that have nothing to say.

I am still reading, certainly. (And I do usually read through an RSS feed, as LauraJ said.)

There is a different blogger, who shall remain nameless, whose blog I read because she seems like a funny and likable person. But once a week she posts her art... And I was shaking my head as I clicked through this last time and looked at the picture. "Really, it's not that I dislike art blogs" I found myself thinking. "But she's no Pyracantha."

I'm viewing on a daily basis, usually I don't have a comment because of mental poverty for the most part. But I have a question for you, if you don't mind, and that is "how do you scan in oversize (bigger than 8.5"x11") pictures?" such as your signs?

also, if I didn't keep up with your blog I wouldn't have a clue what's happening in the Noantri world! as well as the great art!
